I have a set of star tools with a hole in the middle, but the holes are too small. It seems like it may be a T27 but the hole needs to be larger.

You will need the long reach torx bits check them out in the link below for $13.00 from Amazon. Also, I have included how to remove the driver side airbag in the images below. Make sure you disconnect the battery first.
